You are going to want to correct those silly folks over at dictionary.com about this. You are trying to make this distinction so you can imply that I am lying without any proof. It is a predictable move that you have pulled too often in our discussions. I accept that you hold a different view of flying than I do. I don't need to resort to this unfriendly tactic. You are still missing the point of my Pulp Fiction quote. You have positioned yourself as a person on this group who is specially qualified to determine what is true. It makes discussions with you so unpleasant, that most people can only weather a few rounds with your constant barrage, and then they give up frustrated. You are not superior to the other posters here. You are just offering your own opinion about these topics. If you would learn to treat people with respect and kindness you would not end up in these contentions, unpleasant debates. But you are choosing this view and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy. I believe that you enjoy feeling self-righteous and angry in your communications on this group. It is a choice. So if you treat people this way, don't be surprised if they don't want to discuss topics with you. The weird thing is that I think you enjoy these discussions, but you kill them off with your unpleasantness. I don't think you can help it. For the record, as you like to say, my communications with you have been my sincere opinions about the topics we have discussed. I am not right about all sorts of things in this world. I have been wrong plenty of times in my life. I may be wrong about the opinions expressed here. But they are my honest opinions and I will discuss them with anyone who treats me respectfully. --- In [email protected], "authfriend" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In [email protected], "curtisdeltablues" > <curtisdeltablues@> wrote: > <snip> > > > > Sorry if it was unclear.
